suninmye - you stated - "If available thrust reduces, the 777 autopilot will fly the ILS glideslope until the speed reduces to just above the stall. It will then ignore the glideslope, lower the nose and descend just above stall speed. If the 038 had hit the ground in this configuration everyone would not have walked away. That statement is based on having seen it a few times in the simulator. Full up elevator, (unheard of in a 777 landing) had been applied at the appropriate time just before impact to cushion it so that many of the occupants thought on touchdown that it was just a hard landing."

Do you have an official statement that supports your position? The FDR data released by the AAIB doens't show enough data to support your statements, which is why I ask.
There is evidence of an increase in pitch attitude, and a slight decrease in speed, just prior to impact but slight changes in pitch and speed were present just prior to the last FDR data.
Also, if the a/c is being governed by low speed protection, what effect would moving the yoke, to increase AOA, have?
